14 DAY TRIAL // Going forward with the distressing news, even the touch panel market turned out to have enjoyed a less than favorable first month of 2012.
Digitimes again plays the role of bearer of bad news, so to speak.
Apparently, makers of touch panels saw their revenues drop on month by almost 20%.
TPK Holding had it particularly hard, amassing 19.89% less revenue than Wintek, who got off easier, with a 15.78% drop.
On the bright side, compared to January 2011, the consolidated revenues were much higher, by 107.01% and 27.12%, respectively.
All in all, the situation is not as dire as the one that memory makers found themselves in.
Wintek and TPK hope for February to help them rebound.
